Metahuman Fitness Breaks Walls For Expansion

VISTA – Dave Ellinger had a dream. He wanted to own a gym. It was to be a place where people could achieve their personal goals. He along with his wife Lisett made the dream come to fruition when the two opened Metahuman Fitness in Vista in August of 2014.

Now the couple is taking that dream further, increasing the size of the gym from 1,800 square feet to 4,500 square feet at its East Vista Way site.

And on Saturday, they surprised clients, handing them sledgehammers to help – swing by swing – tear down one of the walls to get a start on the expansion. The occasion was filmed; the video of the celebratory destruction can be seen on theMetahuman Fitness Facebook page.

“If you have a passion, I don’t care what it is. I don’t care how silly it is. I don’t care how stupid people tell you are for wanting to do something. If you hate your current position, do something about it,” Ellinger said during Saturday’s ceremony. “Today the walls are coming down.”

With more space, Metahuman will add additional exercise equipment. The growing gym also will begin to offer shower facilities, and child care for its members.

Ellinger and his SuperHero members are excited about the remodel, which should be completed sometime next month. The grand re-opening should take place sometime in August to fall in line with the two-year anniversary of the club.

“Not only do we offer personal training for the advanced, but we also offer training for those who may have never worked out before,” Ellinger said.

Metahuman Fitness is located at 1717 E. Vista Way in Vista, and its website can be found at metahumanfitness.com.
